Title: OS Features in HTML
Post by: Ryu on January 18, 2003, 02:17:33 PM

Old News I know but my HTML conversion now has a webhop address and I've changes the html around a bit, the address is: www.os4features.webhop.net (http://www.os4features.webhop.net/)

There is an official and nice HTML conversion on os.amiga.com (http://os.amiga.com/os4).  Gary Peake has requested that people link to the official HTML version rather than creating their own mirrors etc, as they are using the website traffic to gauge interest.

That's very interesting Chris but I can't seem to get to the PDF file showing the OS4 featutes ( I do have the PDF file on my HD)  from the Amiga site.  

Thought I would go there and give them my "Vote" as well.

Ryu,  Nice job with the conversion, it's laid out well and works great.   Thanks for the effort and posting it.

@Chris, I have requested permission to host it, I will wait for a reply and if i get told to remove it I will, with no hard feelings. I cant help but wonder if your just trying to put a downer on my efforts. The "nice conversion" aint all that nice. Its an automatic conversion done by the adobe website, its slow and doesnt look as good as mine and not as easy to navigate imo.

@BobC thanks for the kind words

Okay I appologise, it seems Amiga Inc have done away with the automatic translation link and put a better HTML version up on their site, still I feel mine is faster to load and scan through. But as I said earlier if they wish me to remove it I will. I was only trying to help out the community :-)

RYU;
I got caught in the same flack a couple of days ago with my conversion. I would have been nice if A, Inc. had sent out another email about the new nice looking HTML version or even better had it ready for the press release, then people wouldn't have bothered converting the PDF.

I wasn't trying to put a downer on your efforts, just passing on information posted elsewhere.

Sorry if I sounded like I was having a go at you.
